Well my cabinet's finally finished! Its taken me absolutely ages to make but its definitely done now. Added the lights last night and its ready to come home tomorrow when my dad's free with the people carrier. Looked absolutely gorgeous in natural pine Crazy 'false' back to hide the...

Thanks :D

I'm building a cabinet and I'm stuck on what hinges to use for the doors. Rather than the hinges going from 90 -> 180 degrees, they need to go from 180 -> 270 degrees. The cabinet has a 70mm strip running down either side, to which I need to mount the hinges. Like this: I know I...

Thanks, but they seem to be Trade only. After spending seemingly all day on the phone I've finally found a company nearby who might be able to cut one to size for me. They did suggest the best thing might be to send a joiner round to actually 'fit it', but since the door will need about an...

OK thanks guys. I'm now thinking to chip away at some of the plaster around the cables to expand the hole, and thread a wire between it and where the TV will be. If I can do that I might be able to pull a HDMI cable through (the only one that's missing, I think). If not, I might just use...

We're redecorating the living room and I'm finally having a HD TV mounted on the wall The previous owners already had one, and plastered all the wires into the wall (for a wall mounted TV), and made a right mess of it, so basically I'll have to redo it. The wall is a breezeblock wall, with...
